ACL 2014: Suggested schedule

Here are my first choices for each day.  I'll focus on the 11am-6pm bands since everyone should know Beck and Outkast, etc.   This just means I want to check out the band but doesn't mean I won't wander over to check out another band.  

My plan is to arrive early and leave early.  The early bands are really good and the crowds are thin.  Plus, it hasn't warmed up yet.  Arriving late is for amateurs.

Friday:

11:30 Young and Sick

12:15 Broods

1pm Preatures

1:15 Temples

2pm Robert Ellis

2:15 Jimmy Cliff

3:15 Lake Street Dive

4:15 Chvrches or Paulo Nutini

5:15  St, Vincent probably

Saturday

11:30 Chain Gang of 1974

12:30 Spanish Gold

1:00 Benjamin Booker

1:30 Rosebuds (but Mac DeMarco is supposed to be good)

2:30 ? (wish they moved Mac DeMarco to this slot)

3:30 Polica

4:30 Bully

5:30 Lucius 

Sunday

11:30 Haerts 

12:15 Mo

1pm Reuben and the Dark

2pm Nikki Lane, then some of Parker Millsap.  Both really solid choices.

3pm  Real Estate, but Cults is good, too.

4pm  Imelda May I guess. Again, wish Cults was here.

5pm  Phantogram (since we just saw Jenny Lewis)
